icises tho icgislation THAI put the law on
the books. The bill In question Is one to
enable tho village to issue these bonds to
build the dam, and states that the piers
Tor the dam shall also be used as the sub!
structure for bridge also to give the vii.
lage authority to secure water from the
river for the fire department.. The court
finds that the improvements il destined to
benefit a private concern, the water power
is not. public, nor the property OF
the village, hut Is wholly under
private control. The provision for the fire
department is not necessary one because
IL the village had a department it would
have the right to use water under the village
control, as the main part OF the illindicates
to be the fact with the water in question.
The decision says, an endeavor seems to
have been made to give the color OF q pub
lie purpose by authorizing the council to
get supply for the fire department, when
the main purpose is to improve O private
water power. The public provisions arc
incidental to the main object. Here Is

Investigator FrankIin's Mon
From the Electrical World.

From the Electrical World.
In 1890 will end the term OF 100
years during which the cities of Bos.
ton and Philadelphia have each en-
joyed the revenue from bequest of
S5, 1000 made by Benjamin Franklin.
The money was to be loaned out to
young married artiiicers and the trust
has been executed, although the lapse
OF the century requires a new DISPOSE
ton of the funds. 1t is significant
that while in Boston the $4,000 has
grown to nearly $328, 900, in Philadel-
phia the So, 900 has become only $7O,-
900, and that in both cases the
amount is less. than Franklin estimate
ed it should be. But as the natural
philosophers of Franklin's day gener-
ally fell short OF the sage in ingenuity.
50 too the successive boards OF trus-
tees have been FAR from equal to him
in business ability. It il interesting
70 note. however, that the two funds
still exist, and that part OF the Bos-
ton reserve goes in the purchase of q
public recreation ground to be known

The Experience of Mrs. Peters.

The Experience of Mrs. Peters.
Mrs. Peters had ills.
Mrs. Peters had chills,
Mrs Peters was sure she was going to
die;
They dosed her with pills,
With powders and squills,.
With remedies wet, and with remedies
dry.
Many medicines lured her,
But none OF them cured her,
Their names and their number nobody
could tell;
And she soon might have died,
But some pellets were tried,
That acted like magic, and then she
got well.
The magic pellets were DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets (the original
Little Liver Pills.. They cured Mrs. Pc
tiers, and now she wouldn't be without
them.
The sun. [volume] (Morris, Stevens County, Minn.) 1882-1895, 1887-12-08

From the San Francisco Post.
The handsomest woman ever saw
was one who took great care OF her
health. When ] knew her she was
over 80, but no girl of 16 that have
ever seen had roster cheeks or brighter
eyes. OF course she was naturally
fine looking, but the. attention she
gave to matters of hygiene added to
and preserved her beauty. What did
she do? Idon't know that l can re-
count all, but remember her telling
me she took q sponge bath every
morning; was particular about the
ventilation OF her apartments; took
long walks when she could; ate but
little meat, much fruit and cereals
whenever she could get them. Anoth-
er thing which she did which she tried
without success to get me to do,
she drank her coffee without milk Or
cream, diluted with water.
The reason she took her coffee so
was because her physicians told her it
was healthier to drink it in this way.
Whether the practice added to her
personal charms or not, don know.
On the whole, she was certainly repaid
for her systematic habits, and as GER
tainly there was nothing arduous
about the performance of them. Nor
was there ANYTHING bizarre about
them, as, it seems to me, there is
about the following account read OF
a Chicago belle:
'To keep the suppleness OF her fig
ure, she stands one hour daily, fifteen
minutes at time, with her hands on
her hips, before a long mirror. and,
bending her knees out from each 9TH
er, she sinks slowly down to the floor as
low as possible, then as slowly upris-
ing, meantime moving her arms in any
direction to their utmost length, out
or up, forward or back, until, when
she stands erect, they are ready to be
placed on her hips again.
Each movement is repeated, every
time little accelerated, until at the
end of thirteen minutes it Is done
quickly, and q fine color is In her
cheek. She then lies down on perfectly
fiat couch, without a pillow until her
breath comes smooth and regular, as
it will in the two minutes left in her
quarter of an hour. When she plays
O good deal of tennis she cuts down
her exercise one.half." OF course, the
benefit to be deriven from this proceed
ure is not to be questioned, whatever
may be thought of it besides. 1t is
easy to see her whole body thus re
ceives good exercise, adding to the
grace of her own form, identifying hel
complexion, and making her stronge,
and healthier.
